VISION AND MISSION

Vision: By 2017, The Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security shall have capacitated its clientele towards sustainable and commercialized agricultural production to

enhance food and nutrition security

Mission: The Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security is committed to promoting sustainable production for attainment of national food security through

development and implementation of relevant agricultural policies, strategies, innovations and programmes that address the sectoral priorities

MEDIUM TERM PRIORITY AREAS

Priority Area Title & Description: Most Relevant Ministerial Objective(s)

01 Increase cereal crop production and enhance food and nutrition

Security

About 70% of grain crops consumed in Lesotho is imported, hence a need to

reduce it gradually. The Ministry will ensure that agricultural inputs are available

on time in order to enable farmers increase production to at least meet local

demand for staple food products. The Ministry will also provide relevant technical

advice to farmers so as to increase agricultural production and productivity as well

as improve nutrition. Lesotho Demographic and Health Survey (LDHS) 2009

shows that at national level 39% of children under age 5 are stunted (Height for

age, it reflects chronic malnutrition), 4% are wasted (Weight for height, it reflects

acute malnutrition) and 13% are underweight (Weight for age, it reflects chronic

or acute malnutrition or a combination of both).

01 - To increase agricultural production and productivity

02 Increase production of High Value crops, livestock and cottage

industry products

The Ministry will undertake programmes that will support production of high

value crops, livestock and cottage industry products. Such programmes will

include inter alia improved quality of wool and mohair, processing of food crops

(food preservation) & livestock products etc. In fact, programmes to be pursued

under this priority areas would support the commercialization policy objective of

the Ministry as spelled out in its Strategic plan, the 2012/13 2016/17 NSDP and

Budget Strategy Paper.

03 - To increase commercialisation and diversification of agriculture production

03 Prevent and control animals & crop diseases, parasites and pests

Livestock diseases and parasites as well as crops pests (e.g. army worm) and

diseases (e.g. fungi in protected agriculture) adversely affect agricultural

02- To reduce vulnerability and enhance management of risk in agriculture

production

production, especially with the current situation of climate changes. The Ministry

aims at prevention and controlling diseases, pests and parasites through various

strategies like continuous surveillance of Food and Mouth Diseases (FMD),

awareness campaigns on possible pests that could emerge and other possible

controlling mechanisms. These diseases control measures will safeguard public

health by tracking animal diseases transmission to human and protecting

consumers from food related health.

04 Improve farmers institutions, extension services, agricultural

technologies, innovation and training

Lesotho agriculture is characterized by a large number of smallholder farmers

under subsistence farming. An intensive training on transforming agriculture in

the country towards commercialization will highly be emphasized for farmers and

extension services. Agriculture will be tackled in a way that it should result in an

increased income of the farming community in the face of prevailing climatic

condition. Development of value chain for high value products is important to

sustain commercialization of agriculture, as a result farmers at all level and

extension service will be strengthened. Moreover, training modules will be

improved and agricultural technologies developed and promoted.

03 - To increase commercialisation and diversification of agriculture production

ACHIEVEMENTS

1. 164 Grants awarded across 5 districts Berea, Leribe, Mafeteng, Botha-Bothe and Maseru (With over 12,000 direct beneficiaries), 53 Agriculture Investment

Plans Completed, and at implementation phase (53 Productive Investment Groups to date, 37 Natural Resources Management Plans and 36 Capacity building

Plans.

2. In line with commercialization Agric policy, about 8 farmers are engaged in bean seed multiplication on an area of 14.94 Ha at Qholaqhoe and Khukhune

Resource centres production

3. The introduction of locally produced improved maize seed varieties (64 seed producers) has increased business opportunities and farmers choice of varieties thus

high chances of increased production

4. Analysis is on-going on different methods of conservation agriculture that will help improve agriculture that will help improve production and productivity,

given the prevailing effects of climate change. Collaboration with FAO, MAFS has trained 18,000 farmers are engaged in CA throughout selected pilot districts

such as Mohale's Hoek, Botha-Bothe, etc. For example, in Botha-Bothe, 82.9 Ha under CA with 542 farmers engaged

5. The MAFS has put more focus on increased quality of Wool and Mohair produced in the country in recent years. In 2014, Mohair from Lesotho was sold at

M136.48 per kilogram and wool was sold at M287 per kilogram. These were the best ever for Lesotho in trade History

6. The Ministry’s Department of Crops has installed 45 Greenhouses and 45 shade nets for a total production capacity of 450 tons of HVC

7. 560 farmers engaged in Mushroom Production - on average each farmer is producing on 2 meter squared plot. Hence 32 tons of fresh mushrooms expected from

these farmers

8. The total land under irrigation has increased from 130 hectares to 195.4 hectares in 2015/16 and 2016/17 BFP respectively. As a matter of act, 13650 tons of
